My AKBB Update
as of right now I am NOT impressed with these seeds. I have a nl5/nl1xnl1 bx I chopped after I got tired of looking at it 11 weeks into flower. it threw nanners that I plucked for a month, luckily they were sterile. I have a super skunk BX at week 8 that I had high hopes for but is now seeding itself.
the Nl is dried and is mids at best. I really thought by buying bx crosses that I would have something stable.
and before anyone tries to blame me for these issues, I have other breeders going right next to these without issues. I have 2 freebies from jbc that are looking amazing, a sour banana from crockett that smells like a candy store. cannarado pilaf that I have grown a few rounds and some cherry zkittles from green line. only problems are with the akbb.

How many beans did you pop?

I mean no offense but I wouldn’t assume every female will be a winner from any breeder. There is a reason the packs have several seeds, if your approach to selection is “the first one will do” then lackluster pheno is a possibility.

I grew some seeds from cap and got 2 females out of 4 seeds, got 2 different phenos and both where dank. got 2 freebies from jbc going next to the akbb, they are killing it. I get you have to search, but to come up with this after 4 months with 2 different BX strains? I'm not so sure if I want to try again with them. definitely not the NL. I ain't got time for 12 week strains.

I popped like 4 of the nl and skunk before I got a female. I got 2 more issnl/mtf in veg, going into flower soon. If the skunk didn't seed itself, it would be fire, so I hope something good is still in there. The NL is probably good for outdoors.

Are you sure the Super Skunk seeded itself or did it catch some pollen from the NL with nanners? That NL plant sounds like an oddball pheno... Northern Lights stuff should be on the fast-finishing side I'd think. I'd try a few more before I throw in the towel on both.

positive, the nl had not 1 seed and nothing else in the room got seeds. I have a clone of skunk that is 5 weeks into flower and is doing the same thing. it was under a different light and the NL had been long harvested. I will probably try the skunk again as it looks super dank except for the seeds. I am just putting some iss/mtf into flower for sexing, so I still have hope for some winners. I just wanted to update MY experience with these beans so far.

Thanks for sharing... poor results are definitely worth reporting. I know we're all acting a little skeptical but I think people just want to be sure before we give a strain/breeder a black mark. You might consider contacting AKBB directly if you're disappointed... he'd probably appreciate an opportunity to make things right, as well as hearing feedback of problems.

I'm not at the complete disappointment level. I will still try and find winners, I want these to work just as bad as anyone else. Nothing worse then spending all that money and time for nothing.

The Super Skunk BX are going to have some herms. Last time I ordered from him I asked why they weren't on his master list and he said he found some herms in the progeny so he's not selling them. I have some going now after asking him for some as freebies.
